Title: Strong signal cancellation to enhance processing of weak spread spectrum signal
Inventor: NORMAN CHARLES P
IPC: H04B1/7097
Filed: 2000-11-14
Abstract: A CDMA coded, spread spectrum radio signal containing a strong signal and a weak signal is received, and the interference of the strong signal with the weak signal is computed to enhance the ability to track the weak signal. The codes modulating both signals are known, and the weak signal can be predicted. The interference of the strong signal is calculated as the product of the amplitude of the strong signal and the predicted crosscorrelation of the strong signal with the weak signal. The strong signal may be measured, predicted, or acquired through a combination of both methods. The crosscorrelation may be predicted for a range of weak signal values, and the weak signal selected as the prediction producing the greatest received power.
Patent AU-4711193-A (AU)
Title: Packet data transfer method
Inventor: POHJAKALLIO PEKKA
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1993-08-13
Abstract: A transmitting party sends a transfer request to a transfer network. Upon receiving the request, the transfer network allocates a service number (SN) to the transmitting party, if allowed by the current traffic load. The service number identifies the transmitting party for a predetermined period. Upon sending the service number to the communicating party which originated the transfer request, the transfer network preferably starts a timer which monitors the validity period of the service number. The transmitting party sends the destination address (DN) over the transfer network only once during the validity period of the service number. The transfer network associates the destination address (DN) to the service number allocated to the transmitting party. The transmitting party utilizes only the service number (SN) as an identity in the data packets transferred during the actual data transfer, and the transfer network routes the packet to the destination address associated with the service number.

Title: Regulated transcription of targeted genes and other biological events
Inventor: CRABTREE GERALD R
IPC: C10G9/00
Filed: 1994-02-14
Abstract: Dimerization and oligomerization of proteins are general biological control mechanisms that contribute to the activation of cell membrane receptors, transcription factors, vesicle fusion proteins, and other classes of intra- and extracellular proteins. We have developed a general procedure for the regulated (inducible) dimerization or oligomerization of intracellular proteins. In principle, any two target proteins can be induced to associate by treating the cells or organisms that harbor them with cell permeable, synthetic ligands. To illustrate the practice of this invention, we have induced: (1) the intracellular aggregation of the cytoplasmic tail of the ¶ chain of the T cell receptor (TCR)-CD3 complex thereby leading to signaling and transcription of a reporter gene, (2) the homodimerization of the cytoplasmic tail of the Fas receptor thereby leading to cell-specific apoptosis (programmed cell death) and (3) the heterodimerization of a DNA-binding domain (Gal4) and a transcription-activation domain (VP16) thereby leading to direct transcription of a reporter gene.  Regulated intracellular protein association with our cell permeable, synthetic ligands offers new capabilities in biological research and medicine, in particular, in gene therapy. Using gene transfer techniques to introduce our artificial receptors, one can turn on or off the signaling pathways that lead to the overexpression of therapeutic proteins by administering orally active "dimerizers" or "de-dimerizers", respectively. Since cells from different recipients can be configured to have the pathway overexpress different therapeutic proteins for use in a variety of disorders, the dimerizers have the potential to serve as "universal drugs". They can also be viewed as cell permeable, organic replacements for therapeutic antisense agents or for proteins that would otherwise require intravenous injection or intracellular expression (e.g., the LDL receptor or the CFTR protein).

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for use of a linear frequency chirp in a transmitter/receiver (14/16) having a correlator to synthesize a narrow beamwidth pattern from otherwise broadbeam transducers when there is relative velocity between the transmitter/receiver (14/16) and the target. The chirp is so produced in a generator (20) in bandwidth, B, and time, T, as to produce a time-bandwidth product, TB, that is increased for a narrower angle. A replica of the chirp produced in a generator (26) is time delayed and Doppler shifted for use as a reference in receiver (16) for correlation of received chirps from targets. This reference is Doppler shifted to select targets preferentially, thereby to not only synthesize a narrow beam but also aim the beam in azimuth and elevation.
